Maybe ~60 yards. I have a T4-115. It wouldn't be difficult to make a few passes. I have a larger project coming up, so I'm thinking to buy a 3pt receiver and a subsoiler.I built a ripper to plow in poly pipe. Hard ground I have to pre-rip before a 2nd pass to pull in the pipe. Plow 3 foot deep with a 200hp tractor.
Depending what kind of distance your talking renting or hiring a small backhoe or miniX maybe more cost effective.
Yes HDPE. Don't buy the old "black roll"plastic, it's not nearly as durable.If you're in texas I think youll be fine. You don't need it very deep.
I'd rethink pex pipe and go with an actual black poly pipe made for ground contact.
I figured your frost line was deeper, I assume it's the three feet of snow on the ground that makes that depth possible?I built a ripper to plow in poly pipe. Hard ground I have to pre-rip before a 2nd pass to pull in the pipe. Plow 3 foot deep with a 200hp tractor.

i'm not sure about TX but around here that walk behind will just bounce and not do a thingRent a walk behind trencher and quit screwing around trying to save $300.

PEX or HDPE would both work just fine. At the distance you're talking, you can easily get a coil of continuous pipe long enough to make the entire run with no mid-line splices.Now I need to look at PEX alternatives as well.
Thank you all. I am in Texas and 24" would be more than enough. (I believe housing goes 3 ft) Now I need to look at PEX alternatives as well.
